3. Amelie (2001)

Director: Jean-Pierre Jeunet

There’s nothing normal or casual about this movie, but its protagonist, Amelie (Audrey Tautou), is one of the most magnificently imaginative characters ever created. The film tells the tale of Amelie’s change of heart at the death of Princess Diana and follows her on a mission to bring joy to all the people she encounters. But the true beauty of this movie lies in Tautou’s portrayal of a highly sensitive and charming girl, who lives life with the astonishment inherent to a child.
